Best Answer

A golden color to a normal silver dollar could be caused by a number of things:

> The coin was gold-plated for use in jewelry or something similar, a very common practice.

> It was exposed to heat or chemicals

> It tarnished in a way that gave it a golden tint (unlikely, but possible)

If it was plated or exposed to chemicals, that destroyed any collectible value the coin may have had. Fortunately, 1922 is the single most common date for Peace dollars so the average collector value isn't much more than its silver value of about $14-16,

How much is liberty dollar mini gold 1922 worth?

The MINI gold plated Peace dollar is not worth anything. I bought one for 6 cents on ebay and was still disappointed with how small it actually was. I had a magnifying glass and I had trouble reading the date (1922). They weren't made back then though. The mini's were made from the mid 60's until present and aren't worth buying. The real Peace dollars are 90% silver and were minted approximately between WWI and WWII.

What is the value of 1922 peace one dollar gold coin?

Peace dollars were struck in silver, not gold. Your coin has probably been plated for use in jewelry or similar, which unfortunately reduces its value to a collector.
